They require a credit card to create an account, but if your application doesn't use much CPU|memory|network|storage (which is our case with our calendar), it is very likely that you will never reach the minimum threshold to start paying.

But due to the ease of configuration and maintenance, I still believe it is a low-cost alternative to be considered.** + **Disclaimer** I am not being sponsored by [fly.io](https://fly.io). It is just a service that worked well for my needs. ![My hackerspace Gancio page](gancio-lhc.png)
